Abstract

Advocating the humanized management of the platform, improving the satisfaction and well-being of gig works, and increasing their stability and platform stickiness are key issues for the healthy development of the gig economy. Based on the Job Demands-Resources Model, this paper discusses how perceived algorithmic control affects gig workers well-being. We found that, perceived algorithmic control can stimulate the work engagement of gig workers, and then show higher well-being; Work engagement plays a mediating role between perceived algorithmic control and gig workers well-being; Gig worker’ work type (full-time/part-time) plays a moderating effect in the relationship between perceived algorithmic control and work engagement. The research conclusion provides suggestions for online labor platforms to improve the gig workers well-being
